‘2 States’ mints 43.93 crore in the opening weekend

Alia Bhatt and Arjun Kapoor starrer ‘2 States’ based
on Chetan Bhagat’s novel of the same name starts with a bang
and continues to rule the domestic as well as the overseas box-office. Opened with
12.42 crore on Friday, the film collected a whopping amount of 43.93 in the
opening weekend. Made on a budget of 45 crores, the film has recovered 85% of
the production costing in just three days of its release.

Rajesh Thadani of Multimedia Combines, said, "The film is doing very good
business at the box office. It has gone beyond expectations. The film has
collected close to Rs 12 crore on Friday. It is great and it's almost going
housefull in many theatres."

"If the film goes at the same pace, it will certainly create a record for
itself," he added.

The movie is running houseful in multiplexes and single theatres. Sanjay Ghai
from Mukta Arts said, "The film is going housefull, and that is
commendable. Without having any Khans or A-listers, the film has managed to
pull maximum crowd.

"The film collected Rs 2.25 crore on Friday from Delhi, and all over
India, its business was close to Rs 12 to Rs 13 crore.".

Released in nearly 2,400 screens worldwide, ‘2
States’ is expected to do a good business in the coming days.
